G'day, and welcome to my blog site. My name is Ivor Steven, I live in Geelong, Australia. I'm an ex-industrial chemist, and a retired plumber, and a former Carer of my wife(Carole), for 30 years, who suffered from severe MS. I Write poetry about those personal thoughts, throughout and beyond my life as a Carer.
I've been blogging for over 2 years, and writing poems for 19 years. Of course a lot of my poems are about my favourite subject Carole, but since I've been blogging my writings have become quite varied, humourous, mystical, observational, and even a few monster/horror poems.

The Doctor has always been
a good travelling companion.
Tom Baker was always my
favourite one (being modelled
on Bob Dylan).
Now he’s trans into a woman!?
Throughout my time travels,
Ivor, I’ve discovered I was never
truly alone.

Thanks Samantha, my friends at the pub think I’m a bit of crazy poet, so I use the word Alien quite a lot throughout my poems, and like you say, we allow ourselves to view our surrounds from outside the bubble of normal life …

I’m one for jotting done my weird thoughts and pieces of my dreams that I remember, and some of my poems are formed from these collective bits. Also I’d like to thank you for following my blog/website, muchly appreciated, I hope you enjoy reading my humble writings, and I’m from Geelong, Australia. Cheers Ivor.

I think they’re under the houses, and in the ceilings, in the trenches, yep, that’s why I go to the pub on Thursday instead of the bank, always safer at the pub, you can always shoot them down with a beer 🍻 gun 🔫, I bet they’ve been shot with beer,.. 😆

You are a most beautiful Alien Poet who shares from the heart and soul!
And the images in this poem are so vivid and memorable, Ivor!
HUGS!!! 👽
PS…I have a friend who has always said that I am an Alien. So, I say, “Well, until The Mother-ship comes to pick me up…you’re stuck with me!” 😉 😛

Ivor, I’m enjoying your not of this world poetry. My favourite Dr Who actor was Matt Smith, with David Tennant coming in as a close second. Having previously liked Peter Capaldi, for me the Dr Who role was wrong for him and he failed to draw me in.

I cannot get my head around the sex change of Dr Who. The hero, the knight in shining armour persona, the protective male character has always won me over and I’m not alone in my disappointment that the BBC has introduced a young woman, Jodie Whittaker to replace our traditional male hero. What were they thinking?
